On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

A podcast where me and some friends cover movies that we have not seen from classics all the way to new releases.
A big franchise retrospective this week with a look at the history of Mission: Impossible and we get a surprise guest who shows up during the proceedings.
More Disney and I'm even joined by Stitch himself at a couple of points to talk about this film. We also just talk about the future of the industry and the Disney live action remakes.
We're back with Marvel and while this was intended to be a look at Black Widow, it turns into a general Marvel discussion as well as the upcoming Thunderbolts.
Another TV show discussion this week with a look at David Lynch's Twin Peaks as well as the prequel film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. We also touch on Lynch's other work and the evolution of TV.
More of an obscure choice for the podcast this week as we look at the 2009 film Daybreakers. We also talk about the Australian film industry, vampire films in general and the work of Ryan Coogler.
We're being a bit more offbeat with a look at a TV show this week with a look at the history of Black Mirror to tie into season 7. We also talk about Charlie Brooker's career in general, relationships and how much the show has aged.
On the flipside of covering Disney's live action remakes and Hollywood slop, we go back in time to 1959 to look at the seminal classic, North by Northwest.
We're covering another big collection of films this week with a look at Disney's recent history with the live action remake. Apologies for some audio issues on my end. Everything will be back to normal in the next episode.
Time for another director's filmography retrospective where we look at the career of Bong Joon-ho with the main focus being on Parasite but with pitstops at his previous 6 films before looking forward to Mickey 17. Note: this was delayed due to cyclone preparations that had to be made that took time away from editing.…
The show is back with the annual Oscars episode looking at this year's upcoming Oscars ceremony looking at the Best Picture nominees this year and the surrounding controversies, some of the other major categories and the coming year of film. Note: this was recorded before the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards.…
As we are one to do, we're delving into the MCU for the first of many times this year with a look at the Captain America trilogy with a bit of a state of the nation address of the current state of the MCU peppered throughout.
There's nothing to tie into this week so let's just cover a film from Guillermo del Toro with Pan's Labyrinth. We also talk about his career, the weird customs of European film festivals and foreign-language cinema in general.
We're going back into the world of TV this week with a look at the world of Star Trek (primarily the Original Series and Next Generation). We also somehow get onto the topic of Doctor Who.
Two episodes back to back? You're goddamn right as we do the show's annual Christmas special with It's a Wonderful Life. It starts off fairly normally but at some point, we get to a discussion of Ricky Gervais so it falls into a usual standard for this show.
Looks like there's gonna be two episodes this week as the podcast looks through the history of Wallace & Gromit with a look at the shorts, the films and the work of Aardman as a whole.
We only did a Disney film a couple of weeks ago but they just keep pumping out new films so we're looking at The Lion King (again) along with the two sequels and the 2019 remake.
One of the biggest gaps in podcast history is begin filled this week as we look at Lord of the Rings (but it's not the extended edition this week). We look at the history of the films coming to screen, Peter Jackson's career and, somehow and rather inexplicably, a comparison between Lord of the Rings, Spider-Man and Paddington 2.…
There's a sequel to Moana coming out soon but it's already been covered on the show so I guess we're covering Mulan this week? There's no real justification beyond the fact that they're both Disney princess films but we talk about Disney in general and there's a special guest who turns up in the episode.…
Gladiator II comes out soon so it's time to talk about the first Gladiator along with the career of Ridley Scott, the general gladiator genre and the similarities between the scores of Hans Zimmer. Also, in the episode we discuss the similarities between the score of Gladiator and Pirates of the Caribbean so here's a comparison of the scores along with The Lion King 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4VaGGbVpRg…
After a hectic and stressful week for some, there's some wholesome content this week with a discussion of the Paddington films to tie into the new film out soon. We look at the films and just the general output of Paul King.
We're covering a real classic for this year's Halloween special with the main item of discussion being the 1982 classic with the 1951, Thing From Another World on one side and the 2011 prequel of the same name (which causes some annoyance to say the least from us). We also talk about poor film endings and what we find scary. Because it's the spooky time of year, you know?…
We've had a bit of a lack of superhero podcasts this year so we're gonna tackle the Venom films which aren't even really superhero films so it barely even counts. Anyway, look forward to our impressions of the song and just general Spider-Man chatter.
You may or may not be aware that I covered What We Do in the Shadows already in the history of the podcast but that was early on and not up to the standards of modern quality so here's a more modern look to tie into the release of the show's final season with talks on the career of Taika Waititi, New Zealand Accents and Danny Trejo somehow.…
We're dealing with the realm of comic book films again this week but this time we're going for the far more serious (at least it sets out to be) Joker and we look at the film itself, other interpretations of the character and the future films.
We're doing another classic this week. Well, rather a trilogy of classics with a look at The Godfather and sequels but will we find the films to be worthy of this praise?
As opposed to doing a multiple episode run on a director's entire career, we have condensed this done to one episode (more out of time constraints than anything else) so we do a full retrospective look at Burton's entire career with talks of his various partners, the biopic genre as well as getting a bit deeper as we go on.…
We conclude our Alien retrospective with a look at the more controversial films in the series and we even get a contender for worst film ever covered on the podcast.
The next few episodes of the show will be massive retrospectives and this week will be the beginning of a retrospective of the Alien franchise with looks at the original 4 films as well as discussing the careers of each director and the Predator franchise.
After a more mature episode last week with Deadpool, we go to the opposite of the spectrum with a far more family oriented episode looking at SpongeBob SquarePants and the film franchise that has spawned from it.
The podcast makes it's return with a look at world of X-Men with a discussion on the Deadpool films as well as a look at the upcoming film and a state of the nation look at the MCU.
The show is back after a nearly month's hiatus and it's time to look at one of my favourite films with Little Shop of Horrors. Not only do we talk about the film but we talk about film musicals, musicals in general and Nicolas Cage somehow.
How else can we follow up Bad Boys? Well, we follow up with another look back at Pixar's filmography with Inside Out to tie into the release of its sequel. Be warned though, it might get a bit emotional this week.
After another extended break, the show has returned with a look at the Bad Boys franchise to tie into the upcoming release of Bad Boys: Ride or Die and I'm joined by special guest Allen Turing, host of the Diminishing Returns Podcast and the British Sitcom History Podcast. We talk about the films themselves as well as general film history of 90s action films, the career of Michael Bay and a talk of the current state of cinema.…
We conclude our brief Planet of the Apes retrospective with a look at Tim Burton's 2001 remake before really focusing on the Andy Serkis reboot trilogy to tie into the release of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. Oh, and it's also the 150th episode!
We are starting a two part retrospective this week by looking back at the 1968 classic, Planet of the Apes as well as the 4 sequels which cause some slight anger and annoyance which leads to conversations on religion, the Simpsons and certain ethical time-travel problems.
After another brief hiatus, the show has returned with a retrospective look at the career of Alex Garland's directorial filmography plus a handful of pitstops with his earlier written work. Also, apologies for some slightly warbly audio on my end. Everything should be back to normal for the next episode.…
The show is looking back at another classic of cinema with a retrospective look at the Ghostbusters franchise with the ups and downs of not just this franchise but also the current state of cinema.
Going for a bit of an older film this week with a look back at the Palme d'Or winning and Oscar nominated film All That Jazz with some very long (relevant tangents) on what inspired the film and some general film history discussions.
The annual Oscars celebration is here with a discussion on the 10 films nominated for Best Picture, the various controversies surrounding many of them and a general look at some of the best films of 2023.
It's a special occasion as it is the 4th year anniversary of the podcast and we conclude the Alexander Payne retrospective with looks at the second half of his career, controversy and the upcoming Oscars.
The first directorial retrospective of 2024 is here with a look back at the career of Alexander Payne and there are some very different feelings towards his films.
The first tie-in episode of 2024 is here with a look at the 2004 cult hit Mean Girls as well as discussions of our own less than popular high school careers.
After a severe delay to the first episode of 2024, we look back at the second half of 2023 with discussions on all the films the show was tying episodes into.
2023 is nearly coming to a close and what a better way than looking back and celebrating (mostly) the films released in 2023? At least, for the first half of the year. It'd be too long otherwise.
We're getting close to the end of the year and we're up to the final tie-in episode for the year with a look at Chicken Run to tie into the release of its sequel as well as having a look at Aardman's past, present and future.
Poor Things is coming out this week so this week the show will be looking primarily at The Favourite but also the rest of Yorgos Lanthimos' filmography with discussions on the films as well as the upcoming Oscars and bizarre comparisons to other new releases.
To tie into the release of Disney's newest release, Wish, the show is having a look back at some of the classics in the studio's backlog and talking about the history of these films, Jim Carrey and the live action remakes.
With the release of Saltburn being incredibly soon, the show will be looking at Emerald Fennell's first film, Promising Young Woman with a discussion on the film as well as the current state of certain things.
This episode is the beginner of a two parter retrospective looking at the career of David Fincher with lots of dumb impressions, discussions on the colour yellow and a general love for Fincher's work.
The final look at the Marvel Cinematic Universe for 2023 is a look back at Captain Marvel but to be honest, there isn't a whole lot say as will be reflected in this episode's length.
Despite another delay, the show continues with a look at Martin Scorsese's career overall but with a few major pitstops at his most iconic work with discussions devolving into impressions and complaints about film length.
After a severe delay, the podcast is back with the conclusion on Edgar Wright's filmography and as was implied in the last episode, there are much bigger clashes this time around.
The show is looking through another director's filmography this year with a retrospective look at Edgar Wright's career covering his first 4 films with our opinions on these films as well as what our favourite one is, a discussion on what is the best film ever and some great jokes.
After another hiatus, the show has returned this time with a look at Adam McKay's The Big Short. Besides discussing the film, we talk about the man's career as well as some political issues.
A long anticipated episode (at least for us) on this podcast with a look at Bullet Train. Not just a normal look though, a full on commentary and live reaction to the film with some arguably questionable jokes throughout.
Apologies for a shorter episode this week (we've got some interesting stuff in the works currently on the film The Meg in anticipation? of its sequel which releases this week. Honestly, we just spend most of this episode complaining, so if you're a fan of complaining, this is the one for you.
We get to the finale of the Nolan retrospective with discussions on Interstellar, Dunkirk and Tenet as well as Oppenheimer, Barbie and the general Letterboxd community. There were some slight audio issues so some of the editing may seem a bit choppy.
Better late than never, right? Apologies for the lateness again but we move on to the next part of Nolan's career which is generally very positive until it isn't. Beyond Nolan, we discuss IMDB, Batman and nudity somehow.
After being sick for a few days, I was able to finish editing this week's episode with a look at Christopher Nolan's filmography with pitstops at his first four films as well as a discussions on low budget filmmaking, film people in general and the superhero origin film.
A smaller film this week before the show gets into a massive retrospective look at a certain filmmaker's filmography, with a look at (500) Days of Summer with discussions not just on the film but also on relationships, love and the worst parts of ourselves.
A couple of weeks after doing Spider-Man, the show is back with another episode looking at a seminal film franchise in Indiana Jones with a special quiz at the end and the first episode with intro music.
Slightly late but still here with the second part of the Spider-Man films. The discussion goes to some interesting places including some controversial takes on the Holland films, slightly less but still controversial take on Spider-Verse and the Spider-Verse sequel.
The show is back with another look at superheroes this time with the first half of a retrospective looking at the first 5 live action Spider-Man films.
This week's episode is looking back at a classic trilogy of cinema with Back to the Future with discussions on the film, changing actors and the quality of Pepsi and Coke.
Delving into the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the first time in 2023 with, what is arguably, the most beloved sub-franchise in the MCU with a discussion on Guardians of the Galaxy and sequels.
After some technical screwups last week, the show is back but delayed again unfortunately. Regardless, we're back doing episodes again and looking at a massive franchise in anticipation of the release of Evil Dead Rise by looking at, well the Evil Dead franchise.
After a slight hiatus, the podcast is back with a look at Ari Aster's filmography in anticipation of his upcoming release, Beau Is Afraid. Apologies for the slight delay on the release. It wasn't uploading to the hosting site so it wasn't able to be released yet.
A bit of a controversial episode this week as we look back on the Best Picture winner that has be somewhat been re-evaluated in recent years, Forrest Gump.
Tying into the release for John Wick: Chapter 4 this week, we delve into the John Wick franchise but we spend about half of the episode discussing films that aren't even relevant to the discussion.
This was an episode that I had planned to do with my dad but circumstances got in the way so this is now a tribute episode for him where we look at Pleasantville. Apologies for some slight technical difficulties.
After a fairly lengthy hiatus, I'm back with a look at the Best Picture nominees this year with a discussion on them as well as a few other categories and some changes to this show for the future.
After a brief hiatus (which I will explain in the episode), I'm back with the Valentine's Day special where we look at Fifty Shades Darker. We kind of ignore the film at points to go on tangents about our personal lives and our times at school. Also, my ratings for the Shyamalan films I didn't cover: The Visit - 7/10 Split - 8/10 Glass - 7/10 Old - 7/10…
The second part of a full retrospective looking at Shyamalan's career where we look at the second distinct era in his career where his career begins to go downhill.
Going into the first big group of episodes for the year where we look at the first five directed works from M. Night Shyamalan and get into discussions on the current state of cinema and child acting.
Now that we've finished with 2022, we can look to the future and look forward to all the new releases of 2023 starting off with a look at Rian Johnson's filmography in anticipation of his new TV show, Poker Face.
Continuing on from last week's episode (as well as the first episode of the new year), we finish up with the discussions on 2022 films with even more of a mixed bag in terms of positive and negative opinions.
Initially planned as one episode (before I realised it would be too long) so I've split it into two parts covering about half of the films/TV shows that I was tying episodes into.
A film that has been over a decade in the making is finally releasing with Avatar: The Way of Water and this week we are looking back at the film that kicked it off back in 2009.
After some slight delays, episode 101 is out. This will we delve into a classic from the late 90s with discussions on the Oscars of the following and how relevant the film is today.
With the final episode before the 100th episode of the podcast, I look back at a beloved classic of the mid-2000s as well as a long coming guest with the film Enchanted.
Concluding with the MCU for the year, with Black Panther and discussions on not just the film but also the past, present and the future of the MCU as a whole.
